Introduction
In accordance with the Diploma Engineering Education programme, the purpose of the diploma engineering
programme is to qualify students to, nationally and internationally, carry out the following business functions;
- Transpose technical research results as well as scientific and technical knowledge to practical use in
development tasks and in solving technical problems
- Critically acquire new knowledge within relevant engineering areas
- Independently solve common engineering task
- Plan, implement and manage technical and technological facilities, including being able to involve
social, economic, environmental and occupational health consequences in the solution of technical
problems
- Participate in collaborative and managerial functions and contexts at a qualified level with people
who have different educational, linguistic and cultural backgrounds
In addition, the education must qualify students to participate in further studies.
VIA Engineering, endeavours to work in accordance with a common DNA for all engineering courses. The
DNA contains a description of what especially characterizes the engineering programmes at VIA, as well as
what to expect from a graduate from our engineering programmes.
At VIA Engineering, we are practice- and project oriented and focused on the surrounding world. These
goals are achieved in the form of qualified graduates obtained through targeted education, relevant research
and development as well as cooperation and ongoing dialogue with the business community. The pro-
grammes at VIA Engineering will qualify the graduates to perform practice- and development-oriented busi-
ness functions.
English-language programmes and international admission is a characteristic of our engineering pro-
grammes. This profile creates a unique opportunity to educate students who can act in a Danish context in
an increasingly global market. Our lecturers have a broad practical experience, and they understand how to
anchor theory in practice through laboratory work, company visits and projects for and in collaboration with
companies.
To ensure the usefulness of the content of the programme, the principles of the CDIO education concept are
applied, ensuring that the individual courses are continuously reviewed, evaluated and developed.
1 Identity of the programme
The purpose of the Mechanical Engineering Programme at VIA is to enable the graduates to work within the
areas of product development and construction of machines and plants and giving them the opportunity to
specialize in 1) Intelligent Mechanics, 2) Polymers and Composites or 3) Sustainable Energy. It is crucial that
the graduates, in relation to the above, develop a deep understanding for scientific problems, experimental
competences and IT-tools. Furthermore, the graduates will develop competences enabling them to work as
project managers both nationally and internationally within the mechanical area.
The purpose of the programme is primarily achieved by:
- Making project work an essential part of the course in which the technical elements of the pro-
gramme are integrated via problem solving focusing on use-oriented and practical engineering work.
In the project work, it is also important that the students develop technical, methodical, communica-
tive and personal competences.
- Collaboration with research environments and companies in connection with the courses.
- Offering an international study environment, in which parts of the programme takes place abroad
and several courses are carried out in English for both Danish and foreign students. From 3rd semes-
ter onwards, the Danish and the international programmes are merged, and all courses are carried
4/16
out in English. Students starting on the Danish programme, however, are allowed to make their pro-
jects in Danish.
- Using the student’s internship actively to exchange knowledge and experience between VIA and the
profession.
- Obtaining application and practice-oriented competences by using VIA’s laboratory, work shop and
library facilities.
2 Structure and content
The programme is organized as an ordinary full-time higher education. For students who complete the pro-
gramme without an individually organized course sequence, the programme build-up, structure and progres-
sion, including tests, will be as indicated in the table at the end of this section.
The official duration of the degree programme is 3½ years, divided into 7 semesters corresponding to 210
ECTS credits. New students are enrolled once a year in August.
The scope of each course and project is documented in ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System). 1
ECTS credit corresponds to 27.5 hours of standard study activity for a student and one study year equals 60
ECTS credits.
The reading of the study material requires English on level B in order to complete the programme.
The programme consists of:
- Compulsory courses and projects
- Elective courses
- Internship
- Bachelor Project
- Workshop practice
A semester consists of 3-6 courses as delimited courses. One course can have a volume of 5 – 10 ECTS
credits and a project can have a volume of 5-20 ECTS credits.
The topics, volume, learning objectives and tests of the courses are described in this curriculum. For a more
detailed description of the individual courses, the valid course descriptions are available on VIA’s web site or
on Studynet.
The programme is structured as illustrated below:
5/16
3 Compulsory courses of the programme, 1st – 4th semester
All courses and projects on the first four semesters are compulsory.
Each of the four first semesters contains a semester project that represents 5-10 ECTS credits. The overall
purpose of the semester project is to tie the subjects of the semester together to a unified whole. Project
methodology, science theory, research methodology and teamwork will be introduced throughout the pro-
gramme in connection with the semester projects.
Each semester has a theme in such a way that knowledge and skills are acquired through the courses and
the competences are acquired and tested in the projects.

4 Internship, 5th semester
ME-INP1
The internship comprises a semester of 30 ECTS credits and is placed time wise on the 5th semester of the
programme. The internship period is either paid or unpaid and takes place either in a private or in a public
company in Denmark or abroad.
The purpose of the internship is for the student to acquire insight into practical engineering equivalent to the
work of an engineering assistant, combined with the integrated application of the concepts, methods and
techniques of the applied disciplines acquired in the first four semesters.
10/16
The following prerequisites must be met before an internship can commence:
- All courses on 1st – 4th semester must be passed/approved
- Workshop courses must be passed/approved or credited
The student is responsible for finding an internship, which must be approved by VIA, who will attach a super-
visor to the intern.
The student prepares a plan for the internship programme with a corresponding assignment formulation, in
cooperation with the company.
The basis for the assessment of internship is a continuous report from the student to VIA, a feedback from
the internship company, as well as a presentation where the supervisor can ask detailed questions about the
internship content.
If the internship is interrupted before the end of the internship period, the supervisor must, in consultation
with the head of programme, assess whether the internship has had a duration and content sufficient for
passing the internship.
The internship is assessed passed/not passed.
5 Elective courses and semester project, 6th – 7th semester
On 6th and 7th semester, it is possible to select elective courses. Apart from elective courses targeted se-
lected specialisations, a number of relevant elective courses are offered on the Mechanical Engineering Pro-

ME-BPR1
ME-BPR2
The programme is concluded with a bachelor project (BPR2) which constitutes 15 ECTS credits of the total
210 ECTS credits of the programme and is finalized with a test. The bachelor project is commenced on 6th
semester (BPR1) by choosing the subject and making a project description.
The Bachelor project must demonstrate individual self-critical reflection within the chosen subject, and must
document the student's ability to apply engineering theories and methods. In addition, the bachelor project
must reflect the student's ability to express himself/herself professionally and structured within his/her sub-
ject.
The conditions for starting the bachelor project, BPR2, are that the student has passed all courses on the 1st
- 6th semester (or courses totalling 180 ECTS credits, including the 30 ECTS credits internship) and the
bachelor preparatory course BPR1 has been completed.
The Bachelor project is prepared in groups of 3-4 persons. However, the head of programme may excep-
tionally dispense with this rule in case of extraordinary circumstances.
The Bachelor project comprises an independent experimental, empirical and/or theoretical examination of a
practical problem formulation related to the core subjects of the programme.
The project must be documented in the form of a report comprising project charter, outline of solution, calcu-
lations, drawings, etc. If the report is a group assignment, it must be clear who wrote which sections in the
report.
The students are examined in the project by an oral test/group test with individual assessment according to
the learning objectives described under section 1.The basis for the exam is the bachelor project. It is a pre-
requisite for participation in the exam that the bachelor project is handed in within the stipulated deadline,
and meets the project requirements described.
The examination may take place at the earliest when all the other tests of the programme, including intern-
ship test, have been passed. The examination is assessed on the 7-point scale and with the participation of
external examiner.
